Throughout history, the siren has captivated men--from the concept outlined in Homer's Odyssey to burlesque theatre to Marilyn Monroe and Brigitte Bardot. A woman who is comfortable with her sexuality and willing to make the first (and second and third) move is the ultimate male fantasy figure. Read on to find out how to embody the character that will make any and all men putty in your hands.

Steps

1

Learn to perform. Women are associated with beauty and aesthetics, so you must embody that as best you can. Learn to dance, sing, play an instrument, act, etc. Dancing is perhaps the best choice for a siren because of its obvious association with sexuality, but any of the others will also work.

2

Show some skin. Skin is associated with--well, you know.

3

Wear your hair long. Long hair is associated with feminine beauty. Play with it, throw it back, let it fall over one eye and blow it out of your face when it obstructs your view. Long, shiny, and all-around beautiful hair is associated with health. You never see a sick person with great hair.

4

Be comfortable with your sexuality. If men leer at you, pinch you, or cat-call, express your distaste for it, but with a one-sided smile or a wink. Remember that you have power over them and that this is the worst they can do to you (see Warnings).

5

Show weakness. Your voice should be high-pitched and melodic. Ask the man to explain things to you. Pretend that you are weaker than you really are--ask the man to lift heavy objects and do things for you. Although you have the power, you cannot make it too obvious to the man. He has an instinct to provide for you and protect you.

6

Be a lady. You must always act sexy, insinuate that you like sex, talk about other taboo subjects, but never talk directly about sex.

7

Flirt verbally. If you are interested in a police officer or a military man, reveal that you "love a man in uniform." If you are attracted to a professor, reveal that you "prefer brains over brawn." It's very effective to use the classic Marilyn Monroe line that men like that make you "melt" or that you are "putty in their hands."

8

Flirt physically. Touch his arm. Give him a massage. Run your hands through his hair.

9

Make the first move. Also, make the second and the third move. If you are a real siren, the man will not be able to think, let alone make a move on you.

Tips

You do not have to sleep with anyone to be a siren. If you do sleep around, it is best to deny it completely. It's a sad but true fact that men are typically repelled by openly promiscuous women.

A siren is subtly sexy and never too over the top. This is a carefully crafted character: on the inside, you are a burning volcano of sexuality but on the outside you are a perfect lady. It must be balanced.

The key to the siren character is that the man has to put in minimal effort to get you--that he is already your ideal lover. Men spend their entire lives trying to change themselves to live up to what they perceive to be the impossible demands of women. If you like the man just the way he is, it is almost impossible to resist.

Men are usually not very suspicious of women's motives, so it should be relatively easy to convince him that he is in control and that he is the one seducing you.

You don't have to be beautiful to be a siren (it is believed that Cleopatra was not beautiful and she seduced Caesar, Pompey and Marc Antony), but it definitely helps. It's difficult to exude sexuality if men cannot find you attractive. You should be at least a 6/10 on the famous Male Ten Point Scale.

Warnings

Date rape is a very real risk, so never go out alone with a guy you do not trust or know very well and take necessary precautions.

Please don't be too easy. People will take advantage of you.

After a night of siren-style seduction, it is very possible that the man will become obsessed with you. Take the necessary precautions.

If you believe that the guy should do all of the work in the relationship, this character is not for you.
